What Europe Can Learn from Israel in Its War Against Terror
(International Business Times-UK) Col. Richard Kemp and Arsen Ostrovsky - The wave of vehicular terror we are seeing across Europe now was pioneered by Palestinian terrorists in Israel, when the world mostly looked the other way, trying to downplay, excuse or just plain ignore the attacks, seeking to differentiate terror in Israel from terror in Europe. Today, Islamic jihadists are copying and exporting this murderous methodology across Europe. In June, Nadav Argaman, head of the Israel Security Agency, revealed that the agency has used cyber-technology to prevent more than 2,000 terror attacks since the beginning of 2016. Europeans need to engage their Israeli counterparts to learn and apply best practices to monitor online channels and conduct surveillance in order to identify and stop would-be terrorists before they carry out an attack.
